    She's apparently about the same age as our main gal, so fifteen or so. He told his daughter he had no intention of replacing her as heir, iirc, so I think he is just wanting someone who he enjoys spending time with and wants to remove himself from all the plottings that go along with things. He's a dude, so I assume he will bed her, but I think he is counting on there not being a male heir. That, or he plans to marry his daughter off soon enough to produce a grandchild male heir that he can claim has a more legitimate claim than any offspring of his new wife, her being officially named as the heir and all.

    You can't make recommendations for stopping in Castroville without mentioning Parisa.

    Legoland.

    We got a new PHD engineer from India about a year ago. Good engineer, knows his stuff, and listens to the advice of others (even non engineers) and incorporates it into his ideas. The only problem is he is a close walker. If we have to walk to another building to check on some stuff or whatever he will be right up on you no matter how fast you walk. Like, dude, I ain't your wife. Give a little space.

    Seems like adding a second layer of drywall would be almost as much work as just removing the existing drywall and adding proper insulation.

    Well, you can buy it on many of the streaming services for twenty bucks. Or you can just wait a bit.

    Yeah, back in my younger days I played many a paintball game in East Texas woods like that. Of course there wasn't any kind of life or death thing going on, but when you grow up in those kinds of woods you learn a thing or two. That said, I'm sure it is a bit of an adjustment for many of the soldiers who grew up in more urban environments.

    Who cares about the donuts? It's all about the kolaches (klobasneki for you anal types).

    I hear south Austin's mom can pull a pretty good vacuum.

    I think one aspect of the border that has fueled GOP opposition that gets overlooked is the war on terror. There are, or at least used to be, many Republicans who legitimately worried about terrorists crossing easily. Now that we are over twenty years out from 9/11 and pretty much done with troops on the ground war on terror, many of those people have been brainwashed and pushed to the far right by hyperpartisanship, but there is a chance for many others. And of course there were always those who just used terrorists crossing as additional justification for their position on illegal immigration, whether it was due to good old fashioned racism or economic anxiety for laboring classes or whatever.

    I don't really get the complaints about the tech not changing or the buildings looking the same. There are still buildings that look the same today as they did three hundred years ago. Turns out when you build something out of stone it lasts a really long time. As far as the tech not changing, it is a fantasy series, not a historical series. If this fantasy world mirrored our own in those regards, there would have been handgonnes (the first true handheld firearm) by the time their was armor like they depict. I thought it was an excellent episode.

    Once you learn to shoot a traditional muzzleloader well you should be able to shoot a modern gun even better. And the smoke is one of the best reasons to shoot one, not a reason not to, especially if you are using real BP instead of one of the substitutes.

    Pretty sure they don't have an open flame permit for that. I bet they didn't even get a safe work permit.

    Go back a bit farther than that and try out some black powder guns. @dcbcI believe still has an apparently unfired Thompson Center Seneca caplock rifle for sale in 45. That should be plenty for deer if you are up to the challenge of getting them within 50 yards or so. More if you take the time to develope a load and can shoot it accurately. But be warned, once you go old school, the new school stuff doesn't seem as fun unless you are killing pigs at night or something like that.
  15. NotActuallyALonghorn
    Yeah, that pretty much sucked. Sorry to be the contrarian.
  16. NotActuallyALonghorn
    Yeah, not even a TLDW?

    Only 3 weeks younger than me, so not a problem here.

    Let's get this thread back on track...

    If I ever have reason to move out of state, I will be getting a lifetime license before I leave for sure.

    I gotta finish up the hunting bag and powderhorn set I've been working on. Season will be here before you know it.

    But would you have felt better had your boss bought you a new dad?
  22. NotActuallyALonghorn
    Have that in red. Multiple bottles of milk were put in that fridge and subsequently spoiled. But it was the one year that did that, not the wife.
  23. NotActuallyALonghorn
    A kitten?
  24. NotActuallyALonghorn
    Yeah, just caught up on this thread and am surprised money ric didn't go for the low hanging fruit here.

    Did they sign a bunch of Jr High players for the offensive line? DiNucci did make a pretty nice play avoiding that one tackle. I guess he is getting plenty of practice at it.
